Our popular Garden Theatre returns to the Swan Gardens for a limited summer season in July and August 2024.

We are bringing The Holloway Garden Theatre back with a joyful one hour, 20-minute staging of William Shakespeare’s timeless comedy As You Like It, directed by Brendan O’Hea.

We also have a series of family-friendly workshops and events on offer in The Garden Theatre, as well as a new re-interpretation of The Two Gentlemen of Verona by young people aged 13-18 from the RSC’s talent development pipeline Next Generation Act.
